Jack and Jill of America,
Inc., Savannah Chapter has
been awarded a grant from the
national chapter of Jack and
Jill of America, Inc. to imple
ment a leadership develop
ment project. This is a nation
al initiative with the mission
of “Empowering Leaders for
the Nation.” The program,
which will be implemented at
the Frank Callen’s Boys and
Girls Club, will cover topics
on service and sacrifice, com
munications, legislation, and
problem solving/conflict reso
lution. The sessions will be
facilitated by various individ
uals who are leaders in their
field including, Clyde
Newton, Georgia Power
Executive, Robert Graham,
Air National Guard, State
Representative Craig Gordon,
and Dr. Malik Watkins,
University of Georgia Carl

“We don’t want this to
just be a series of lectures to
the participants; they get a lot
of that already. We want this
to be a fun, interactive experi
ence, which will allow give
and take between the partici
pants and the facilitators” said
Karen Bogans, Foundation
Chair for the local chapter
who submitted the proposal.
Rhonda Houston, Chapter
President said “I am excited
our chapter is involved in this
national initiative. Not only
will people from the commu
nity be involved, our mem
bers, and their children, will
be involved as well. After the
overwhelming response to the
Mayor's Youth Summit, we
knew we needed to do our
part to try and make a differ
ence in the lives of our local
youth.”
The project will begin in
August and end in November
with a completion ceremony.
